When I went home this afternoon I met a sweet cat on my way. She crept around my legs. Since I have always my camera with me, I wanted to try to get a close up of her and crouched down. She was so restless and moved constantly around my legs.
But suddenly as a bird flew over our heads, I got my chance. She sat down and watched him. That was my moment to capture the above scene and this is the only one I could make from her.
Better in Large On Black
Als ich heute nach Hause ging kreuzte eine süße zahme Katze meinen Weg. Sie schlich die ganze Zeit um mich herum. Da ich meine Kamera immer bei mir habe, wollte ich sehr gern eine Nahaufnahme von ihr machen und setzte mich in die Hocke. Ein Makro war jedoch unmöglich, da sie ständig in Bewegung war und um meine Beine schlich.
Doch plötzlich flog ein Vogel über uns. Sie setzte sich, ließ ihn nicht aus den Augen und beobachtete ihn sehr genau. Das war meine Chance für die einzige obige Aufnahme. Weitere waren nicht möglich.

The link that you will never find here down the south often.01068 Tirunelveli Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Superfast Special accelerates with KYN WDM3D 11382 after a halt at Nagercoil town.Look at those red buffers.
The Ultaran, being the decendants of Makaan, are firm believers that superiority over 'inferior races' is achieved through the construction of giant, powerfull war machines. The Ultaran Dreadnoughts are feared in every corner of the galaxy because their sniping power is immense. They deliver fantastic damage over great distances. However these ships lack the electronics to deliver that pain so far on their own. They require a couple scouts (housed within the ships docking bay) to 'target-paint' coordinates. Therefore, ironically, the immense power of these ships rely on the very fragile nature of the scouts.
------------------------------------
It's finally finished! This one is a bit bigger and more complex than what im used to, and required a couple BL orders of light grey bricks. Its inner structure is quite sturdy and the armor pannels are angled using many different techniques.
I will detail and compare the evolution of the ship through sketches and pictures at a later time. Inspired at first by Vaygr Battleships, i realize that it has more of a Sajuuk shape.
View original size for details.
also known as "tic-tac-toe" :)
apologies, I'm a little behind - I'll be catching up soon

This beautiful spring landscape is taken on the pathway leading out of my neighborhood and into Fish Creek, facing south and east.
When snapping this photo, I was about two steps beyond where the fence line ends and from here it is just pure, gorgeous nature pathways and trails for just about as long as you care to explore!
One of my favorite spots to start nature journeys from, and only about 5 minutes from our house!

Un pequeño homenaje a las pequeñas cosas. Al Principito, ese pequeño gran libro, y a este pequeño local que aunque no lo parezca tiene una pequeña carta de cervezas larguísima...

A small tribute to the small things. To the Little Prince, that great little book, and to this small local bar, which believe ir or not, has a small really long beer types list...
Noppharat Thara Beach, Ao Nang, Krabi, Thailand
11.36pm, 19.Nov.2011, f5.6, 30sec, ISO-800
Lens: Sigma DX 8-16 HSM
Camera: pointing 45deg up and to the South-West
In the foreground you can see campers at the beach. The lights of Ao Nang town was too bright in this capture. Was almost a moonless night with little clouds.
Actually, on this day, I was supposed to shoot the sunset. During the afternoon, it started raining, so had a short nap in the cool air-cond room. By the time I woke up, it was 8pm! Grrrrr!!!!!!
My youngest grandchild Wilm one year old walked his first steps without taking someones hand during I was in Bielefeld. He simply still loves crawling on the ground and it doesn't matter whether on foliage in the forest or on the street ;-)).
This photo was taken on a rainy day ... Wilm was happy to crawl on the ground despite the wet grass.
Love it Large On Black
(In my next uploads I will share some other photos of Wilm with you.)

Y espero,aunque los años pesan,seguir visitando y disfrutando de más ruinas romanas mientras pueda sostenerme.
I wish, althoug the years keep going .., to continue visiting more roman ruins...
El teatro romano de Cartagena fue construido entre los años 5 y 1 a. C. en la ciudad de Carthago Nova, actual Cartagena. Tenía capacidad para unos seis mil espectadores, y estuvo en uso hasta el siglo III, a partir del cual se superpusieron varias edificaciones.
En 1988 fue descubierto y después de algunos años de abandono,se emprendió un ambicioso proyecto de reconstrucción y restauración del monumento.El teatro se había mantenido en muy buen estado de conservación y hasta un 60% de los materiales originales se conservaban enterrados.
En el borde superior del graderío del teatro romano, en la parte más alta de la colina en que está excavado,se construyó en el s.XIII la Catedral de Cartagena. Muchos de los muros de la catedral contienen restos de diferentes épocas...romana,bizantina, árabe....

About this shot
Swans in front of 'The Swan' (=Erasmus bridge) always nice!
The 'Inflatable Me' / 'Gullivers Travels' thing, is an idea I've been toying around with for quite some time for my new website. Still optimizing the technique. It's not easy to get light, shadows and water right (plus wet pants!), but I'm working on it! Hope you like the idea behind it. :-)
Very busy at the moment: Changing workflow from Photoshop CS5 to Lightroom 4 (final touch in CS5), setting up a webshop to sell my stuff plus busy creating a professional website. I really want to get things going, photography wise!
Enjoy your loooong weekend, and thx for dropping by!

There are two derivations of the name. One is that of the youth of Greek mythology called Narcissus, who, in at least one of many variations of the tale, became so obsessed with his own reflection as he knelt and gazed into a pool of water that he fell into the water and drowned. In some variations, he died of starvation and thirst from sitting by the edge of the pool, transfixed by his own reflection. In both versions, the Narcissus plant sprang from where he died.
The other derivation is that the plant is named after its narcotic properties (ναρκάω narkao, "I grow numb" in Greek). (Wikipedia)

Die Bezeichnung Narzisse leitet sich von dem griechischen Wort νάρκειν narkein ab, welches „betäuben“ bedeutet. Die Dichternarzisse, die auch in Griechenland wächst, strömt tatsächlich einen sehr intensiven und betäubenden Geruch aus. Die Römer übernahmen den griechischen Pflanzennamen als narcissus.

Mont Blanc (French) or Monte Bianco (Italian), meaning "White Mountain", is the highest mountain in the Alps, Western Europe and the European Union. It rises 4,810.45 m (15,782 ft)[2] above sea level and is ranked 11th in the world in topographic prominence. It is also sometimes known as La Dame blanche (French for "the White Lady") or Il Bianco (Italian for "the White One").
The mountain lies between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy, and Haute-Savoie, France and the location of the summit is on the watershed line between the valleys of Ferret and Veny in Italy and the Arve Valley in France.
The two most famous towns near Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy, and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France—the site of the first Winter Olympics. A cable car ascends and crosses the mountain from Courmayeur to Chamonix.
Begun in 1957 and completed in 1965, the 11.6 km (7¼ mi) Mont Blanc Tunnel runs beneath the mountain between these two countries and is one of the major trans-Alpine transport routes.
The Mont Blanc massif is popular for mountaineering, hiking, skiing and snowboarding.
The summit of Mont Blanc is a thick, perennial ice and snow dome whose thickness varies, so no exact and permanent summit elevation can be determined. But accurate measurements have been made. For a long time its official elevation was 4,807 m (15,771 ft). Then in 2002, the IGN and expert surveyors, with the aid of GPS technology, measured it to be 4,810.40 m (15,782 ft 2 in).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Blanc
The Aiguille du Midi (3,842 m) is a mountain in the Mont Blanc massif in the French Alps.
The cable car to the summit, the Téléphérique de l'Aiguille du Midi, was built in 1955 and held the title of the world's highest cable car for about two decades. It still holds the record as the highest vertical ascent cable car in the world, from 1,035 m to 3,842 m. There are two sections: from Chamonix to Plan de l'Aiguille at 2,317 m and then directly, without any support pillar, to the upper station at 3,777 m (the building contains an elevator to the summit). The span of the second section is 2,867 m measured directly, but only 2,500 m measured horizontally. It thus still is the second longest span width, measured directly.
Comparison photos of Lesser Scaup and Greater Scaup. The photo in the first comment box below shows a female Greater Scaup. Lesser Scaup has a more peaked crown with a noticeable corner of the crown above and behind the eye. Greater Scaup's head is more rounded. Greater Scaup also has a larger bill which flares out a bit towards the tip. Greater Scaup also shows pudgier cheeks if you can get a head-on view of the bird.
Both photos were taken at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge in Central Florida

This is a passage to the train station where I live. I was heading for the train on my way to the city core when I heard these kids running and screaming behind me. I felt a picture coming and I grabbed my camera, crouched down and took this shot as they passed me...
